MIT scientists are designing robotic insects that could one day swarm out of mechanical hives and perform pollination at a rapid pace — ensuring fruits and vegetables are grown at an unprecedented ...

Scientists with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology say a new breed of tiny flying robots that weigh less than a gram ...

American scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new type of robotic insect that can ...

MIT researchers have developed highly agile robotic insects that could transform artificial pollination, enabling fruit and vegetable farming inside multilevel warehouses. Inspired by real ...

New insect-scale microrobots can fly more than 100 times longer than previous versions. The new bots, also significantly faster and more agile, could someday be used to pollinate fruits and ...

With a more efficient method for artificial pollination, farmers in the future could grow fruits and vegetables inside multilevel warehouses, boosting yields while mitigating some of agriculture's ...

The results of cowslip observations carried out with the help of citizen scientists from 32 countries in over 5,200 locations shed light on the well-being of insect-pollinated plants under ...

At the pinnacle of this pursuit, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers are pioneering tiny, insect-like robots that specialize in artificial pollination to revolutionize the future ...

Imagine a world where robotic insects take over the critical task of pollination, freeing farmers from relying on the whims of nature or resorting to manually pollinating crops with paintbrushes.

Researchers at MIT are making this vision a reality by developing robotic insects that can perform pollination, much like bees. These robots could one day allow farmers to grow crops in multilevel ...

MIT researchers are developing robotic insects that could someday swarm out of mechanical hives to rapidly perform precise pollination. But even the best bug-sized robots are no match for natural ...
